MR Anton Rippon has contacted me from Derbyshire to say he is researching a book on professional football during the Second World War.
He would like to hear from any readers who have memories of playing or watching between 1939 and 1945.
Mr Rippon says: "I am particularly interested to hear of guest players and the difficulties of travelling to games in the war. All contacts will be acknowledged."
His address is: Anton Rippon, 20 Chain Lane, Mickleover, Derby DE 3 9AJ.
The telephone number is 07769-685627 and the e-mail address is Drop a line...anton.rippon@btinternet.com.
